Scouting Report
Anchors the low post at both ends and is a gifted shot-blocker and rebounder. Feisty: battles for boards and second chances, and has nice hands for put-backs and short hooks. Possesses the game, approach, and massive wingspan of a true NBA pivot. Lacks explosiveness and foot-speed in the open court. Not a great leaper, so must lean heavily on his positioning and timing under the hoop. Needs to keep developing shooter, passing, and go-to offensive moves.
Long Range Potential: Solid, underrated rotational center.
